Abstract We correct an inaccurate result of previous work on the Feynman in position space of a free Dirac field in (3 + 1)-dimensional spacetime; we derive the generalized analytic formulas of both the scalar Feynman propagator and the spinor Feynman propagator in position space in arbitrary (D + 1)- dimensional spacetime; and we further find a among the spinor Feynman propagator in (D+1)-dimensional spacetime and the scalar Feynman propagators in (D+1)-, (D−1)- and (D+3)-dimensional spacetimes. Key words Feynman propagator, Klein-Gordon field, Dirac field, arbitrary dimensional spacetime PACS 11.10.Kk, 03.70.+k, 02.30.Gp
